We had a fantastic lunch at the rooftop restaurant of Hotel Casa Luz. The setting alone is worth the visit—lush plants, elegant ceramics, great lighting, and a relaxed vibe above the city.
The dishes were creative and beautifully presented. We started with oysters on ice, crunchy croquetas, and smoked sardines on toast—each one delicious and thoughtful. The steak tartare was served with nasturtium leaves and a zesty relish, adding a fun interactive element.
My companion wasn’t a fan of the rayfish dish, but I really enjoyed it—tender, bold sauce, paired with a silky puree. The only miss for us was dessert: a brie or camembert-style cheesecake that didn’t quite work, especially alongside a rich chocolate creation. Interesting idea, but the flavor balance was off.
Service was friendly and pacing was spot-on. Overall, 4.5 stars. We’ll definitely come back. Highly recommended if you’re into elevated yet relaxed dining with a view.
